[Glass] tools/objectLog web tool and stack traces?

[Mariano Martinez Peck]

Hi James,

That looks like the same functionality as the "Debug" menu from GemTools.
This is unusable for me (because it is very very very slow to actually
debug) for a remote server.
Do you know if Jade performance is good enough for debugging an object log
of a remote gemstone?

Thanks
